As the analogue switchover nears completion and HD starts to gain an increasing prominence in the many UK homes where does television go next? Will 3D become the next must have technology or will ever larger affordable TVs drive the need for “ultra HD”? Or is television as we know it a dying medium to be eclipsed by online and mobile media consumption?



In the 2012 IET John Logie Baird lecture we welcomed Peter Heslop, Director of Digital Switchover at Arqiva, José Luis Vázquez, CEO, Miranda PLC and Neil Maycock, Chief Architect, Snell.



This lecture intended to capture the spirit and excitement of 2012 in the TV industry, from the launch of Youview, to L2012 and DSO. This year is a pivotal year in the UK for TV. However, the event will also look at the rapid growth and changes in TV around the world as well.
